Previous Tenant Left Some Alloys....

panthro · 30 Apr 2012 at 14:18

Since I moved into my flat, there's been some wheels left in my parking space. I've had a note on them for the last 2 months saying to move them ASAP. No one has bothered so I'm assuming the previous owner left them.
Theyre Mercedes wheels (judging from the centre caps) in 225/40/16; filthy and slightly corroded. The tyres are all mixed. Once is a Wanli, one Goodyear etc. They have between 3-4mm tread on them. I really want to get rid of them ASAP, are they worth anything or shall I just take them to the dump?

I would think if you sold them individually on ebay that you would get a few quid for them with people picking them up. There are bound to be people out there that need one new alloy

wow, you must live in a good area....

If i had alloys in a parking space for more than 2mins the ****** would pilfer them.

Stick em on ebay, or take the tyres off and weigh them in.
Free money

eBay, I've never sold a set of wheels and tyres for less than £80.

I might stick them on ebay then and just put a clause in saying that I can't guarantee the condition of them. They could be bent for all I know. Plus I have no idea of the offset.
I'll try and upload a photo tonight.

offset and pcd etc should be stamped on the back of the alloy usually.

Merc Wheels? Get some pics up, you could get a nice chunk of cash off of the euroboyz

eBay.

I paid £85 for a single alloy last week because Toyota wanted £340 for 1!

There must be people out there who ran into potholes/kerbs etc and need just one alloy.
